Walmart in Baltimore Refusing Ammo Sales

Empty store shelves prevent concerned residents from making purchases after riots

A Walmart in Baltimore is refusing to sell ammo to customers in the aftermath of riots that swept the city this week, according to journalist Charles C. Johnson.

Johnson, who has written for the the Wall Street Journal and the Weekly Standard, relates how his cousin, who lives in Baltimore, was turned away by Walmart during a bizarre exchange that suggests the retail giant has instituted a policy to remove ammunition from its shelves.

“No ammo on the shelves. This is at a store 30 minutes from downtown,” wrote the individual, adding, “If you couldn’t specifically ask for what you wanted they refused to sell it to you.”

However, another customer who specifically asked for a certain type and amount of ammo was also turned away empty handed.

The Walmart employee told the individual that any ammo which wasn’t visible on store shelves was unavailable as a result of a “policy” that had been put in place.

“I don’t see any ammo on the shelves,” said the customer, to which the Walmart employee responded, “Exactly.”

Prudent policy, to say the least. Some of the ones who would buy ammo at a WalMart in Baltimore would use it to shoot cops. That town does not need any ammo purchased and distributed in the "heat of the moment." The time to buy and stock up on ammo is BEFORE all the looting and violence starts up. Be prepared at all times and you don't have to worry about WalMart's ammo policy.
